explaining my burka wants

it's little to do with sexuality
so much as not wanting to be stared at
that may be hard to explain
how invasive staring can be
i tell people i'll be the one smoking in it
but if i could afford one and it was all cooling in the heat
well, i'd still probably use the money for other things
but what a great gift idea
like those many things so necessary
that have nothing to do with survival
but flight of the soul
or at least momentary escape
